But this informal meeting will be followed by a formal meeting.”

We want to keep the best interest of the people living on both sides of the border, in our mind we want to protect them. We will try to resolve the dispute to the satisfaction of the people of both Assam and Meghalaya,” Himanta Biswa Sarma said.
